The bell rang and the light descended.
Celebi and Shaymin, who had first led Chris to attend the ceremony, imdiately took off into the sky and flew toward the dazzling light.
Soon, all the Gracidea flowers across the mountains and plains—whether already blooming or still in bud—suddenly "blood" at this mont. The energy within them burst forth, and a wave of energy that had nearly condensed into physical form spread across and covered the entire island.
Chris felt like he was standing in a fairyland!
"Is the energy in the Gracidea flowers erupting?" Chris looked at the Gracidea beside him. It seed to be burning, with faint wisps of energy smoke escaping from it.
The surging energy caused the Shaymin and Celebi to beco increasingly active.
The Shaymin jumped happily among the Gracidea flowers, and several Shaymin were already wrapped in white light. When the light faded, the hedgehog-like "Shaymin (Land For)" had disappeared, replaced by winged forms flying through the sky—"Shaymin (Sky For)."
For a mont, groups of Shaymin and flocks of Celebi staged a "musical" in midair.
Chris then rembered.
Shaymin had a habit of gathering together when the Gracidea flowers blood and then evolving collectively.
In the legend that was widely known in reality, when people rejoiced that the harsh winter had ended with the change of seasons and expressed their gratitude to nature, Shaymin would appear and make the barren land burst into bloom with flowers.
These flowers were Gracidea, and they were also Shaymin's evolution catalyst.
The "Thanksgiving" that Shaymin had ntioned must be referring to this.
Chris stood there and watched, waiting for a long ti, though he wasn't idle. His body was bathed in the surging yet gentle energy, feeling both comfortable and nourished at the sa ti.
The sensation was obvious.
However, what surprised Chris was that the three orbs within his body were also absorbing the energy released by the Gracidea flowers.
The efficiency wasn't low either.
Chris felt like he was standing in an energy vortex.
Fortunately, the Celebi and Shaymin weren't paying attention, otherwise Chris would have been embarrassed.
The "song" ca to an end.
The Celebi departed with the Shaymin, each of them disappearing into temporal rifts.
Thinking about it, it must have been Celebi's doing that allowed this group of Shaymin to gather here.
"Goodbye, everyone!" Celebi, as the leader of the clan, waved her little hands to bid farewell to her friends. Finally, she turned to Chris, scratching her head in embarrassnt. "I almost forgot about Lord ssenger..."
"Lord ssenger, what brings you to visit us?"
The patriarch of the Shaymin clan, who stood nearby, hadn't left yet.
He looked at Chris curiously.
He had his doubts about Chris's identity, but he didn't deny that the powerful aura emanating from Chris and his companions made him curious, so he decided to stay and observe.
At the sa ti, it was also to protect his friends.
"Uh..." Chris thought about it. With this Celebi present, it would be rather difficult to capture a Celebi for himself.
It was better to get straight to the point.
"I want to travel through ti and go back two thousand years. Can you send there?"
"Two thousand years ago?" Celebi tilted her head. "I'm sorry, Lord ssenger. I can only travel as far back as one thousand years, by human calculation..."
"Even you can't do it?" Chris couldn't help but frown.
If even a LV98 Celebi couldn't travel back two thousand years, then it seed that if he wanted to go that far back, he would have to seek out Dialga directly.
"Wait, what if we rely on its power?"
ga Gardevoir stepped forward and handed the Adamant Crystal to Chris.
"Using the god's token?!" Celebi excitedly circled around the Adamant Orb in flight. After confirming its power, she declared loudly and cheerfully, "That should be possible!"
"After I go, can I co back?" Chris continued to ask. Although traveling to two thousand years ago in the ga had no impact on himself in reality, he didn't want his future activities to be limited to only the ancient Sinnoh region.
It wouldn't be a wise choice to give up several existing regions for one ancient region.
"Emmm, after traveling for such a long ti, I'll need so ti to rest."
"However, Lord ssenger, if you're willing to lend the god's token, I'll recover very quickly. It will only take one month of human ti," Celebi said earnestly.
It was clear that she really wanted to serve Chris, whom she believed to be the god's ssenger.
Chris felt completely relieved when he heard it would only take a month.
Even after arriving in the ancient Sinnoh region, he would still need to search for clues to the Adamant Orb and Lustrous Globe. He didn't know if a month would be enough ti anyway.
"Alright, thank you for your help. But instead of traveling from here, we need to go to the Sinnoh region first."
The ancient Sinnoh region was the historical Sinnoh region, so it would be best to travel through ti from the Sinnoh region itself. Who knew what the Hoenn region had been like two thousand years ago?
Especially considering it was the "holand" of Hoenn's two legendary titans.
The possibility that it would be the sa after two thousand years was extrely low!
"Okay!" Celebi agreed.
Chris looked around the entire island. The Gracidea flowers' energy had been completely drained, and the energy tide on the island had gradually dissipated. The Gracidea flowers scattered across the mountains and plains were no longer legendary Pokémon items, but just ordinary flowers.
Therefore, there was no reason to linger here.
"Shay-mi! Shay-mi! Shay-mi!"
Just as Chris was about to leave with Celebi, a delicate and anxious voice ca from not far away.
Soon, a little Shaymin that hadn't evolved into Sky For hopped out of the Gracidea garden and jumped in front of Chris, Celebi, and the Shaymin patriarch.
Upon seeing its clan elder, the little Shaymin imdiately began calling out repeatedly, "Shay-mi! Shay-mi!"
With his Soothe Bell, Chris could clearly understand its aning.
During the "Thanksgiving" ceremony just now, all of its friends had evolved from Land For to Sky For, but it was the only one that hadn't evolved. So now it was anxiously asking the clan patriarch what it should do.
"Who told you to be resting while everyone else was training?"
"All the gratitude energy has been distributed. If you want to evolve, you'll have to wait for the next Thanksgiving ceremony," the patriarch of the Shaymin clan said, spreading his hands.
The Thanksgiving ceremony wasn't just a random event, nor did the energy in the Gracidea flowers appear out of thin air.
The energy had been collected by countless Shaymin from all over the world and even across different points in ti over the course of decades or even hundreds of years.
If it wanted another Thanksgiving ceremony, it would have to wait another hundred years.
